Season Opener

The Party
In another successful prelude to one of Aspen’s premier events, Aspen Magazine hosted its annual Food & Wine kickoff party June 18, with a grand tasting of our own on the plaza at Snowmass’ Base Village.

The Players
A few hundred partygoers came out on a beautiful evening, including Michael Goldberg, Ramona Bruland, Laura Werlin, Hugh Templeton and David Houggy.

The Scene
Chefs from eight local restaurants dished up delectable bites like seared shrimp bruscetta and mini Caprese salads. Guests also sampled wines from Greece and lined up at the eye-catching Don Julio Airstream mobile bar for tequila drinks like classic margaritas and lavender palomas. –Photos by Robin Proctor
